Seems like that could breed resentment in the minds of astronauts who get stuck, like Butch and Suni. As cool as working in space would be, it's still work. Combined with the toll that microgravity takes on the body, and missing my loved ones, I'd be wanting some "extra" compensation for my time and health.

So, real nuts and bolts question here. How does this affect their pay? Are they being paid extra to be up there so long? I would want overtime.
Content filters! I've got them for Trump, Elon, "Slammed", "Dragged", "Blasted" and the question mark, because news headlines in the form of questions can almost always be answered with the word "no" and are not worth my time.
OK, I'll bite. Source?
Obviously, don't upload any photos to the demo site that you wouldn't want shared. That's pretty basic internet 101. The point is to demonstrate the amount and types of information Google infers from its users' data. So feed it a pic you don't care about, or try with the supplied images.
Best part? The description supplied here is probably a limited version of all the information that Google infers from each of your photographs. It would make sense to ask for a short 3 paragraph summary of key observations to fit within API limits. On Google's end? No reason for such limits to exist. So they infer even more from your data than this website can show. And they run this kind of compute on everything you give them.
They "claim" that they don't sell or share this data. Do you trust them?
You might say you have nothing to hide, but you also don't get to control the shifting definitions of what's acceptable. Today you're fine. Tomorrow you're labeled a political dissident because of the evidence of Wrongthink that Google happily supplied to the government without your knowledge. Especially in light of the incoming administration, this is an important discussion to have.
Here is a list of FOSS Google Photos alternatives. Immich looks particularly good to me.
People are in disbelief that they would be making this kid into a hero
Last time I checked, he was a full grown 26 year old man who made his own decisions, not a "kid."
Thomas Thowsen and James LaRochelle, welcome to the List!
Stephen Bonczyk of Lakeland Florida is a tyrant and fascist who doesn't respect our right to free speech in the US. In my opinion.
You think Microsoft doesn't give a direct uplink to America's thought police?
Wonder if Chief Piggy Sam Taylor's speech has been entirely free of no-no words his whole life, since that's the standard he's applying here?
Are the Feds actually this smooth-brained? I mean, I know they have to maintain the appearance of control, so his words make sense from that perspective. But surely they have to be aware, the very backdoors they originally forced down our throats are EXACTLY WHAT'S CAUSING THIS PROBLEM NOW. These geniuses who purportedly protect American citizens, are either woefully inept, lacking basic understanding of how data security actually works, or LYING with malice. Which do you think it is?
